🔥 Detailed Description 🔥

The SoButtonEvent class is the base class for all button events.

Every event class that shows up when someone pushes buttons on a device — keyboard, mouse, or spaceball — inherits this class. SoButtonEvent is where the methods for setting and getting the state of the button(s) live.

🎀 Member Enumeration Documentation 🎀

enum SoButtonEvent::State

This gives the actual state of the button.

Enumerator

• UP — Button has been released.
• DOWN — Button has been pressed down.
• UNKNOWN — The state of the button is unknown.

💅 Constructor & Destructor Documentation 💅

SoButtonEvent::SoButtonEvent (void )

Constructor.

SoButtonEvent::~SoButtonEvent () [virtual]

Destructor.

✨ Member Function Documentation ✨

SoType SoButtonEvent::getTypeId (void ) const [virtual]

Returns the actual type id of an instantiated object.

Reimplemented from SoEvent.

Reimplemented in SoKeyboardEvent, SoMouseButtonEvent, and SoSpaceballButtonEvent.

void SoButtonEvent::initClass (void ) [static]

Initialize the type information data.

void SoButtonEvent::setState (SoButtonEvent::State state)

Set the state of the button which the user interacted with.

This method is used from the window specific device classes when translating events to the generic Coin library.

See also

• getState()

SoButtonEvent::State SoButtonEvent::getState (void ) const

Returns the state of the button which is the cause of the event, i.e. whether it was pushed down or released.

See also

• wasShiftDown(), wasCtrlDown(), wasAltDown(), getPosition(), getTime()

SbBool SoButtonEvent::enumToString (State enumval, SbString & stringrep) [static]

Converts from an enum value of type SoButtonEvent::State to a string containing the enum symbol.

This function is an extension for Coin, and it is not available in the original SGI Open Inventor v2.1 API.

Since: Coin 3.0
